“I’m not worried.” She whispered to herself. Well mostly to herself.
******************************************************************************
“Is that everything?”
“Yep, looks like. Let’s get the hell out of here.”
“You excited to go home?”
“I don’t think excited is the word that I’d use. But it will be interesting.”
“Because of Bette?”
“No.” Yes, of course because of Bette.
“Stop being jealous. There is nothing between Bette and I.”
“I know that’s what you said…”
“And that’s what I meant.” I tell him sharply, slamming the trunk closed. Like the trunk I want him to understand that this topic is also closed.
“It’s just that it’s the first time….” Ok he didn’t get it. Before he continues I roll my eyes at him and climb into the passenger seat. Clicking the seatbelt, he’s still stands outside with a look of a wounded puppy. Geez I knew he was sensitive, but this pouting thing is a bit much.
“Eric, come on. I don’t want to miss the plane.” Instead of climbing into the car to yell or totally ignore me, he turns his back to me and leans against the car. Nice Kennard you hurt his feelings. Got to make this quick. So I square my shoulders and make my way to my very upset boyfriend.
“Baby… Eric look at me.” He does after a moment of hesitation, and he has tears in his eyes. One second I give him a look like he’s lost his mind. I just rolled my eyes at him, I didn’t steal his favorite Tonka truck. But in the same moment I’m reminded that he and Bette are twins. Same big brown expressive eyes. They seem to tell you everything before he or Bette open their mouths. Today it’s no different than any other day. I see Bette in him, no matter how sick or weird that sounds. But today I realize I don’t have to pretend anymore. I’m going home to her. Or at least I’m going home to be around her. But first I have a wounded boyfriend to tend to.
“Bette is wonderful. And she was absolutely wonderful to me. And I did love her very much.” Before I get to finish he starts to turn away from me and reaches for the door handle. What is it with these Porters and not letting you finish a thought before they react. I had to grab his arm and turn him around to face me again.
“Please don’t turn away from me before I’m done, ok? I fucking hate that.” He nods but keeps his eyes down and his head slightly away from me.
“Hey.” I say to him, grabbing his chin towards me. Now he has to look at me.
“Stop looking defeated. Nothing is going to happen between Bette and I. I’m your girl, ok? But I’m kinda worried here. You’ve been freaking out about me going home for the past week.”
“That’s not true. I’m thrilled that you’re coming back.”
“That may have been the case a couple of weeks ago. But lately all you do is want me to talk about Bette and I. What I think of her, what I’ll do when I see her. It’s all just a little too much right now, ok. Just trust me. But most of all trust your sister.” His eyes get dark the moment I mentioned trusting Bette. What the hell happened between these two? Any time I mention trusting her, he gets upset for a second, but quickly drops the subject. Bette did the same thing.
“I have been doing that haven’t I?” I asks scratching his head, a habit that appears when he is embarrassed or ashamed . I don’t answer, just tilt my head and raise a brow to agree with him.
“You know, did anyone ever tell you that you look so sexy when you do that with your eyebrow?” Yeah, she has. But instead of answering him and putting both of us back in that uncomfortable space, the only thing I can think to do is to kiss him softly on the lips and get into the car.
“I’m so glad you’re coming back to California, Tina. I can’t begin to tell you how awesome it’ll be. All of us together again.” He smiles confidently while he starts the rental car. He grabs my hand and places it on his knee. Never letting go of me, we were headed home to California. To Bette and to all of the complications that surround her. And I couldn’t be happier.

I don’t know what to say. All the four people know exactly Bette and Tina will just find chance to get back together when they’re around each other. But now all of them are pretending they’ll be ok. I really don’t like Tina now. She’s the one running away, refusing to think and make up mind, playing with her love’s brother, coming back to shuffle, and everything. I kind of feel mad at her. But I know I’ll be fine with her as long as she makes up to Bette…
I admit i didn’t read the last chapter but all I can say is that i trust you. So we are going to come full circle.Can’t wait.Gotta go and read the previous chapter.
I missed this story. Glad you found time to post. Grace is a little needy but loves Bette and I think bothe Tina and Bette should dump their girlfriend/boyfriend, it’s clear their just stringing them along and it’s not fair to either of them. Can’t wait for the next chapter.
You said to trust you, so I will, but it’s a little difficult after this chapter I must say :o)) And what is Grace doing calling Bette pookie – I hate that, it reminds me of Tonya!!!! LOL…..I hope the problems with the computer is soon over, so you can post again…
Good chapter. Damn drama coming and can’t wait to see how Bette and Tina react when they see each other again. Ok post soon please, thanks!
As always, Grace,Eric gotta go. Pookie, give me a break. Now come on, I do believe their was the promise of bring our two girls together, can’t wait till they see each other.
Great chapter. Looking forward to the next one.
Ok. Did I miss something?Tina with Eric and Bette with Grace, what the hell happened after Bette left the hotel? Anyway I love this story and can’t wait to see where you take this.
laurel i dunno if i missed sum chapters…but damn can they cut a lil deeper into eachother..bette with grace n tina with eric jeez!! ok waiting for u next thanks for posting!
NO you didn’t miss anything. All will be explained when B&T start talking and hanging out with the gang. Don’t worry
Hope Bette is ready to see Tina. Grace is a nut case Calling Bette Pookie… Thanks
i guess we just came full circle and came back to chapter 1? or we almost there? it’s time for B&T to fight for each other
pookie? wtf? methinks we have a tonya incarnate… noo… =P
great chappy laurelite. I missed your story. I am glad to see we are almost back to the beginning. please post when u can.
Wait she could not be happier to be going back to the woman she is still in love with, who’s heart she broke?!?!? Is Tina that thick this sounds like a fucking nightmare scenario to me. Specially since she is now dating said woman’s brother and said woman is now dating her so called psycho best friend. Yeah the excitement of it all I would rather go skinny dipping in hell.
Cany wait to see what happens next between our girls, I still want to shoot Grace what a pain in the Ass she is
ok… now it all make sense to what I’ve read from chapter 1 :) Thanks for the story and the… DRAMA… it hurts, but I sure love it and craving for more of this story :D Post soon.. please!
what the f***!!! when in the hell did tina decide to do eric instead of goin for bette. “to be around her.” what in the hell is goin on in yo head?!?!?! this is goin tto be some hurtful shit, i can see it already. this is to good to leave danglin for weeks on end. please post soon. PEACE.
Now send Bette out of the country as soon as Tina snd Eric arrive. Tina doesn’t deserve to be in Bette’s presence and Bette doesn’t need the anguish! Tina is sick using Eric when she wants Bette. In fact in this story leave Tina out in the cold, let Bette and Eric “ride off into the sunset” together. Their love is more important that what Tina could offer either.
Well, that was entirely painful and uncomfortable. Well done. But I thought only IC’s season 3 writers could call Bette “Pookie”.
LL,Looks like there will be storm clouds ahead. I think that a major nature disaster is on its way. There will be turbulent times that will savage these characters but like all traumatic events those that survive will be stronger and more resilient to all that life can throw their way.I think that this be a cleansing time, casting away all of the old inhibitions and heartache, which will allow new love to nurture and rekindle shattered relationships.Yes, you do have to demolish the remains before rebuilding a stronger, and tougher union.I love the way that you have twisted these characters into your own and developed a divergent storyline.Please do not explain or apologize for your words and vision. If they offend people then at least they are paying attention and care about what you are creating.I support this masterpiece and your freedom to create such brilliant fan fictions.Much gratitude and appreciation,Your Loyal Fan.
Um, yeah, could U get B&T back together. After the first two shows, I’m a lil cranky. Cool Chapter by the way. Post soon. Thanks.
